". bzzzzzzz . . .

Did I ever tell you that I spent a year on a cooperative farm in the Pacific North West in my youth. Coincidentally, the cash crop was honey bees. The 'buzzing off' thing is a myth btw. Bees are more likely to hang around in one location.

buzz around, buzz around...buzz buzz buzz around. Most people get used to it and the sound can actually become quite soothing. That is except for smelly people. Bees are like watch dogs. If people have a dishonest odor, the bee's sound becomes more of an ZZZZZEEEE than a buzz, and the odorous person is guaranteed to get stung. The bees can smell fear and anger, and by their nature are prone to sting the reeking culprit. For what its worth, I had no problem hanging out in the bee yards with millions of them buzzing around. This is an easy thing to test.

In the spring go stand by a bee hive when you are at peace. Stand next to one when someone is annoying you and see what happens. Yeeeouch.
